Fred had faith 
That could move a big mountain 
Fred had a tongue 
That flowed like a fountain 
Had a big brain bible trained 
Gave what he had 
To the poor and to the flame 
Fred had faith and faith is fine 
Fred had a wonderful wonderful mind 
What would he need love indeed 
Love is the greatest of all of these 
Fred had hope carved in stone 
Beyond what's seen beyond what's known 
Nothing could shake him or take him 
Away from the light that the Lord had gave him 
Fred had hope and hope is fine 
Fred had a wonderful wonderful mind 
What would he need love indeed 
The most excellent way is love 

Faith hope and love 
But the greatest of these is love 

Love is more than the act of giving 
Live is the key to the art of living 
What's the gain from the pain 
Without the love of Christ it's all vain 
Love is patient love is kind 
In thsi song I hope you find 
A message of love but what you gonna do 
Love is calling get into action 
Love is the start of a chain reaction 
Love is more much more 
Listen ya'll what love is for 
Faith hope and love forever 
learning to love is the greatest endeavor 
So what do we need love indeed 
The most excellent way is love 

Faith hope and love 
But the greatest of these is love 

You got to show one another 
That you care about each other 
And you love your neighbor 
Like you love yourself 

You gotta love God with all your heart 
Because that's really the biggest part 
And you love the people 
The people around you 
The most excellent way is love
